Bond must die

I like this quick quote from Mr. Big (Yaphet Kotto) in Live And Let Die (1973) – short and sweet, to the point. “Any cost. Any. Bond must die.” It sums up his desperation and desire to kill Bond. I think most of Bond’s foes would agree with the sentiment.

Am I crazy or does the man in the painting behind Kananga in Live And Let Die (1973) resemble (an older) Morgan Freeman???
